[quote=Anonymous]As a nanny, I would absolutely be quitting too. And not because I can’t deal with not having a break. Because I refuse to deal with chronically overtired children. I can’t do my job if you sent me up to fail. Kids that age should absolutely be napping most days. So you either have dropped an app intentionally at some point (possibly in the misguided belief that it will force them to sleep longer at night when you are in charge of them), or you have a long pattern of not understanding or prioritizing their sleep and not following developmentally appropriate sleep routines. Whatever the reason that got you here, an experienced nanny is going to know that toddlers that age should absolutely still be napping regularly and if they do not nap at all and they will be chronically under slept and it will affect behavior, development, social and emotional milestones, and just generally make life a nightmare for the nanny.
